Abstract :
Much of the past modelling, analysis and synthesis of autonomous intelligent systems, autonomic systems, cognitive systems, and natural cognitive processes have been conducted using single-scale approaches. This talk presents fundamentals of multiscale analysis and synthesis, with emphasis on monofractals and multifractals as they apply to cognitive informatics and cognitive computing. Examples of many natural self-affine objects and phenomena are provided, and several analytical results are presented to demonstrate the advantages of multiscale analysis. Examples of multiscale synthesis of noise are also provided to illustrate how to generate processes for research of signals contaminated by natural noise.
